Visited Beth Sarim today

by exwhyzee in

my sister in law has been shunned by the family since she da'd herself at the age of 18 and moved out of the house.

i always insisted that my wife keep in contact with her and made sure she knew she had a soft place to land,with us, should she need it.

even at the risk of it getting us in hot water with the pioneer,elder,bethelite family members there was no way we were going to let her disappear into the wild blue yonder on her own.

i went and saw the book of mormon when i was in nyc last week.

it was superb.

so many great songs and so, so funny.

Saw it a few months ago at the Pantages Theatre in Los Angeles. A great show with a little extra meaning for JWs. Hilarious and thought-provoking - totally recommended.

"I believe that God has a plan for all of us

And I believe that plan involves us having our own planet"

"And I believe that in 1978

God changed his mind about black people."

Perhaps why Romney lost the election?

What was the best KISS you ever experienced?

the phone rang in the art gallery and i answered.. the voice was a young woman's.. one of her two parrots had died rather suddenly.. she wanted a colorful frame for the memorial portrait.

could we accomodate her?.

the remaining bird was sulking.. i suggested parrots without partners.. i don't where my tasteless jokes come from.

once i was little boy in fort worth, texas living with my maw maw and paw paw and mommy.. then, i was an 18 year old 6'4'' skinny 165lb religious nut being dipped in a baptismal during a local assembly.. suddenly, i was 20 and listening to a jail cell door clang behind me as a conscientious objector.. wow!

23 years old and put on parole until my 6 years sentence was ended!

i got married to a nice jw girl and had 3 kids!.

Happy Birthday, Terry!

Find people to love who will love you back and don't waste even 5 minutes on anybody who will turn their back on you when things get tough.

Wise words.

i went to see it today - by myself (mr bee is on a golf junket).

i was glad that that i was by myself because i cried so much at the end, i wouldn't have wanted to be with anyone who wasn't crying - and that would not have been mr bee!.

les miserables the current film is adapted from what is considered one of the half-dozen greatest novels of the past 150 years and one of the longest novels ever written.

Some films work just as well on the small screen. Les Miz is not one of them.

This woman was "famous" for carrying her gun with her everywhere, even to her kid's soccer game. I wonder why she couldn't defend herself?

For every one of these, there are X number of accidental shootings because of a gun in the house.

Now, if I were the woman who shot the intruder, I would be thrilled beyond belief that I had thusly defended my family. But I also have personally worked with a woman whose 12 year old son accidentally shot his 11 year old brother. Their family was destroyed. All because there was a gun in the house. How do you want your family destroyed - an armed intruder or an accident?

Fact is - the odds - statisically - are against.
